our daughter is 34 & has just finished her PhD residency in Atlanta. she and her husband both are forensic psychologists. they have lived all over the country for the last ten years getting their education. they are moving back to Texas next week. they hope to find work in Austin. while...

V it sounds like you've had a lovely time, and time on the beach sounds best of all! it seems so strange to read about leaves turning color & temps cooler. somehow this summer just flew by. it was nice today because the temp fell to upper 80s. it was forecasted to be right at 100. instead...

gosh bay, that's quite an ordeal. our stories sound quite similar, except mom is still doing fair on her own. she's 90 also. you are taking such great care of your mom. she is so cute. it's great the nursing home is accepting of polly. I had dad in a nursing home briefly. he had alzhemers...

gosh, you've sure got the compost thing down pat. congrats. I've got a big pile of various "stuff". I watered it well yesterday for the first time in awhile. not particularly eager to put my hand in that pile of 'stuff'. it's my first year to really have manure available. I've got goat &...

looks like my chickens will make It through this heat. it's the nights that are so hard. I've got fans in there, but it's still tough. they free range during the day & I keep a mister going in one spot. it keeps the ground moist there & they all stand around in the mist in the late afternoon...

our neighbor was looking out across the pasture a couple nights ago (when the moon was so bright). he said he saw a pack of about 15 animals. he said several were pups, but that is still a HUGE pack of coyotes. looks like we've got our work cut out for us.

dig the hole twice as wide as the root ball but no deeper than the root ball. amend it nicely with composted organic matter. add some lava sand & some green sand if you can find it. here in Texas, you need to avoid peat moss like the plague. it's great if you get decent rains, but in a...

bay, you have your hands full taking care of your mom, that's for sure. sounds like she's going to be ok, but in the meantime - it's tough all the way around. my dad lived with us the last four months of his life. he had alzheimers. he could have lived much longer, but he fell & cracked his...

I have the auto pop door now too. had it about 1 yr. no fail yet. it is great

bay, I would love to have a couple of them. dh won't hear of it & we already have these two human protectors & the combination would probably be a disaster. so for now, no lgd
